How do I replace color of selected text using the replace feature
What are the exact "Find what" and "Replace with" settings you are using.

Have tried using replace feature and font color in the replacement dialog box but it doesn't work Thanks for reply Suzanne Word document. I have a series of book marks per page for a book group and wanted to change the color of the title for all the bookmarks without changing each individually. I placed the cursor in the "Replace with" box and then changed the color of the font which then shows up under the "Replace with" box. But it won't replace when I select replace or Replace All. Thanks bb. |

How do I replace color of selected text using the replace feat
I can't say that's the clearest description I've ever read, but I'll assume
you're doing this: 1. Placing the insertion point in the empty "Find what" box, clicking More, and choosing Format: Font. 2. Choosing your font color (say, Blue), which causes "Format: Font color: Blue" to appear under the "Find what" box. 3. Placing the insertion point in the empty "Replace with" box and choosing Format: Font: Color: Red, which causes "Format: Font color: Red" to appear under the "Replace with" box. 4. Clicking Replace All. This works for me. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "bb" wrote in message ... "Suzanne S.

Thanks bb. Hi Suzanne What you did is what I did also but I had already done some text changing beforehand.. So I tried it again but this time changed the text simultaneously and it worked. So there must have been some problem with the text selection. Thanks for your help. bb |
